There is something in common with my highest and lowest the Unitarian part of
Unitarian Universalism started with the rejection of the trinity, Jehova's Witnesses also reject the trinity.

Liberal Quakers are one of the coolest groups as far as a history being enlightened socially. First to treat Native Americans compassionately, and mental patients, and prisoners, when a good social cause comes around you will usually find Quakers were at it before anyone else had even started considering the issues.

interesting... it would have been nice if they went more in-depth with each one of the questions as some can be easily misinterpreted. or even if you could mark multiple circles like the boxes on some questions.

I see a lot of people share the top score of Unitarian Universalism.

Can someone please tell me what that is exactly?

It's a fairly extreme liberal religious view that has roots in Christianity. Steve Waldman, the editor-in-chief of beliefnet.com shows a lot of bias towards this ideology so I'd just ignore that result if I were you.
